If you didn’t know, Dexter Fletcher also directed Rami in Bohemian Rhapsody, taking over after Bryan Singer was fired from the project.
In fact, there was even early consideration by the director to have Rami‘s portrayal of Freddie Mercury in Rocketman!
“There was an idea I had one point, where Elton’s in a restaurant with his mother. I thought John Reid and Freddie could be at another table and they wave at each other!
